Wine Reviews

The 2019 Falanghina Rocca dei Leoni is fruit-forward and even a bit tropical, showing ripe mango, kiwi and hints of banana, balanced by pretty yellow florals. Round textures give way to a contrasting blend of acids and minerals, providing a tactile and cleansing sensation, which slowly tapers off to a note of sour citrus. This is a thirst-quenching Falanghina that is sure to win a lot of fans through the warmer months.

Spring blossom, exotic fruit and banana aromas lead the nose. It’s light-bodied and refreshing, with flavors of pineapple and peach accompanied by crisp acidity.

Fresh, juicy and bright with tangy, crisp fruit; racy and lively, with a core of firm acidity; racy and long, pure and balanced.

Banana, honeydew melon and honeysuckle aromas lead the way while the generous palate doles out pineapple and white peach flavors. A candied nectarine note backs up the fruity flavors, alongside tangy acidity.

A typical falanghina with canned peach and lemon character that is overridden by sliced lemon and hot stone. Full body, flavorful and gorgeous. Crisp. Energetic.
